libbpf: Add identical pointer detection to btf_dedup_is_equiv()

Browse Source 
[ Upstream commit 8e64c387c9 ]

Recently as a side-effect of

commit ac053946f5 ("compiler.h: introduce TYPEOF_UNQUAL() macro")

issues were observed in deduplication between modules and kernel BTF
such that a large number of kernel types were not deduplicated so
were found in module BTF (task_struct, bpf_prog etc).  The root cause
appeared to be a failure to dedup struct types, specifically those
with members that were pointers with __percpu annotations.

The issue in dedup is at the point that we are deduplicating structures,
we have not yet deduplicated reference types like pointers.  If multiple
copies of a pointer point at the same (deduplicated) integer as in this
case, we do not see them as identical.  Special handling already exists
to deal with structures and arrays, so add pointer handling here too.
